Pros:
No-Brainer price, tons of fun, very light, poppy but stable, does well in softer conditions, high quality bindings and ski!
Cons:
Edgehold on very firm snow is average, love it or leave it retro colors (I love).
Would you recommend this product to a friend?
Yes
The Stance 84 packs a TON of value and performance into an approachable, lightweight, fun ski that inspires confidence! I feel like a lot of skiers who would love this ski have overlooked it for more steezy skis, when this ski would allow them to do more and do it better! This would be an AWESOME first ski for an intermediate skier, would be amazing to ski with kids and sneak off for some fun!
The Stance 84 is top quality from the bindings to the construction and materials- the latter are used in specifc zones of the ski to enhance its perfomance. It's lightweight, has a good amount of camber and rocker in the tip and tail for versatilty. While the carbon zones make this a poppy ski that will do VERY well in the bumps and exploring trees, the titanal underfoot provides dampness and a good sense of stabilty.
